Wiseguy724 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Hello all, Not new to shooting but this year marks my first as a USPSA member as of jan 9th. Started doing local rifle/pistol cqb matches last year late summer, got addicted and am now devoting more time to the sport. Started shooting with my carry gun (sig 229 extreme) and finally got a "real" gun dedicated for matches at the end of december. I'm Active duty Marine Corps so my free time is limited but fortunately I have been able to shoot a match almost every weekend for the past 2 months or so. I am really enjoying everything so far, and am eager to keep practicing and improving. It's amazing how much you can learn even after you thought you were experienced! Lots of my questions have been answered by reading through this board so I figured it was time to go and sign up and contribute. As of feb 15th I received my first classification of C at 55.26%, I'm shooting 9mm minor in Limited div. I'm happy where I'm at now, keeping an open mind as I learn more each match. Attached a picture of my current setup. See you all out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alma Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Congratulations on the clarification. It looks like B class is no too far away. Beautiful gun. I highly doubt you see anyone else with one like that in his holster on the range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPatton Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Welcome Wiseguy. This new addiction will cost you a LOT of money. Shoot a while and then decide what you want to end up with and go with quality hardware the first time around. It'll be cheaper that way. If you ever want to do it, then do it now because the longer you wait, the slower you'll get and when you are drag racing with guns time really matters. Now try some 3GUN.
